About this listen

Which of the worlds was real? And where were the boundaries? As a child, Helen and her friend Rianna had wandered freely through Charnwood Forest into an enchanted otherworld of brightly-coloured creatures and strangely beautiful, charismatic people. Then Rianna moved away and the enchantment vanished. Now, 15 years later, she has returned suddenly, secretive and haunted. And soon Helen finds herself drawn back across those half-forgotten, ever-shifting boundaries between reality and fable. Drawn back into the twin lands of Tevera: the sun-bright, singing lands of the Chalcenians and the chill, sad underworld of the Domendrans.

Very different but connected worlds, their pull is growing stronger. An age-old conflict between the realms of light and darkness is breaking through into Helen's everyday world, dragging in her loved ones too. Wonder gives way to bewilderment and fright. As they come to understand the enigmatic people of Tevera, they realise that they must play their part in the conflict that will save or destroy our own world.

Critic reviews

"She is emerging as a formidable novelist, already in command of dark romance and blighted love." (Vector)
All stars

Finally. 40 years later I've found my book.
I first read it as a child but could never remember who wrote it or what exactly the title was.
I only remembered that it had a rainbow gate in the title and could remember a good portion of the story but in parts.
This story has held my imagination for years of other worlds,what is between our world and the next.
This story has it all. Romance, fantasy, mystery, mythological creatures and the hope that there's something more.
If you're looking for an escape this book will take you there. It will take you to places you've only imagined.
And for me. It was so worth the wait.

otherworldly, mystical fantasy romance.
